OK: HAVE HIM PRESS WITH HIS THUMB (THE SAME SIDE AS THE BLEED) AND USE THE OPPOSITE JAW SOR PRESSURE, AND HOLD IT A FEW MINUTES THAT SHOULD WORK. IF SMALL NOSEBLEEDS ARE FREQUENT THERE MAY BE A SURFACE VEIN IN THE NOSE THAT NEEDS CAUTERY. IF THERE'S A LOT OF SNEEXING & NOSE BLOWING, AN ALLERGIST MAY BE INDICATED.
